I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.
The book of Hebrews applies this passage to the Lord Jesus Christ. No one has ever
- Delighted in the will of God more
- Fulfilled the will of God more
- Possessed the will of God more fully in His heart
The passage has other applications too. It is from that perspective that I consider that having the law of God in the heart is more than having it memorized. A proper possession of the law of the Lord is one of delight. It is the person who loves God’s Word, who delights to
- Hear it
- Learn it
- Speak of it and
- See it worked out in his world
who is most likely to do God’s will.
We don’t learn it so we can do it.
We learn it because we love it.
We then delight to do it.
